Entropy
fading his life away
before the world could ever see
dissipating, evaporating

Hired and sacked behind locked doors,
a man in uniform fighting cold wars.
Invented steam saviors and taught them to fight
and they stopped things going bump in the night.
All his accomplishments hidden for life.
His genius's top secret even from his wife.
An aged wrinkled genius, his memory fading.
His fates, his creations, the government evading.
